I'm not sure how many of y'all saw my hideous attempt at the JLo poncho:

Big fat Lemon!

But after trying to make it "look right", I dusted myself off, frogged it, and, after adding a strand of mint Bernat Softee Baby, and changing to a P hook, this is what I came up with:

I am *so* happy with this 'lemonade'!!!
It comes down to my lowerback and it's sooooooooo soft!

NOTE: If you ever make anything with RH Symphony, try not to have to frog it, cuz it does NOT play nice!

Way to go! It looks beautiful. Everything I try lately seems to turn into a lemon. No lemonade yet, but I'm trying.

Looks great! And...I totally agree with you about the Symphony. It does not frog very well at all!

Beautiful shawl, I love a successful frog. I use to freak out every time I had to do it, but now I just hope for a successful outcome on the second go round! YOU DID IT BEAUTIFULLY!
